Nikita Asks:

I got couple of anarkali dresses for a wedding to attend .please see the attached pics ,i was thinking of just black lined eyes with some eyeshadow and nude lip color to go with them .I have no clue for the white dress.Please help me with the makeup for these dresses.


About me ..my eyes are really small and droopy so please suggest some thing that they don’t look like that :D.

 

PS:sorry for little blurred pictures with smudged eyes and not taking off the price tag before taking the pictures πŸ˜€

  1. all three are lovely, I liked the red more….and as Anks said, for the white, you can try picking the pink color from the dress :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo:

  2. i really liked the last black one. For makeup for that dress I would go kind of ‘mauve’ on the lips with a light blush and keep it simple on the eyes- just an eyeliner and a mascara. would definitely go for big earrings like jhumkas or something and wear a simple bracelet or khada πŸ™‚ (sorry could not resist on the jewelry part).

    I think I have more dark colors in my wardrobe so i have this tendency to be rracted towards the darker colors.

    1. yep i just went 2day and got exactly the same kind of jewellry u mentioned here …
      i knew as the dresses are loud i have to keep my makeup simple..but white i was so lost..:)
      thanks!!

  3. After foundation, concealer and powder for the eyes-
    For all three a nice neutral eye will look best. A medium bronzy champagne color all over the lid and deeper brown in the crease and outer corner. Make sure to blend this well.
    Then apply a thin line of black liner along the upper lashline thickening it at the outer half of the lid and then winging it upward as this well reduce the droopy eye effect.
    Apply a nice warm toned pink blush like nyx spice and a neutral brown pink lippy for the red and black dress and for the whte i would suggest a deep fuschia color as this wil add some drama (:

    Hope i helped

    1. red lipstick ..i never bought a red lipstick before :D…im scared it would look too much …i will do one thing i will wear red lipstick and show it to my dad if he is not shocked then it will rock !

  4. Your dresses are gorgeous. πŸ™‚ I think with the white dress you can go for bright fuchsia or anice purpley lipstick You can apply little shimmery / golden gloss just on the centre of the lower lip.

    I would keep my eyes heavily kohled and with tons of mascara.

        1. get colorbar silver.. its awesum.. i too hav it … any heavy dresses with silver embroidery/work, with those,silver liner luks gr8… :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo:

  6. my suggetion:
    for white dress:pink strawberry gloss on lips with lakme desert rose quad for eye shadow.
    for blacky(toooooo nice): go for mauve/brown based shades for lips and just a kajal with a winged eye makedo using any liquid eyeliner wil suit you.

  7. nikita ur dresses are gorgeous…makeup u already got tips…for jewellery u can team up big earrings!
    where did u buy these beauuuutiful dresses from?

    1. yep just got the jewellry !! after 7 hours of shopping i finally found what i liked..
      i bought all these dresses in hyderabad …took 5 days of hunting for these dresses. Buying indian wear is so difficult .. :stars:

  8. Ohhh what lovely dresses…really beautiful. Does anyone know any online stores selling these kinds of outfits?? (Sorry to butt in with another question !!) Thanks all. :))

  9. Really pretty dresses Nikita πŸ™‚
    For the black I would suggest a coppery eyeshadow with light liner and lots of mascara and with the white mauves and purples would look great.
    enjoy the wedding and Do share pics πŸ™‚

  10. for the white, you can wear a super bright lippie in matte if it is a day look , and add on some gloss if it is a night look, bright pink , orange red , or red pink would be great..

    for dark coloured suit (black) wear a smoky eye and use some gold highlighter on ur cheekbones, center of ur lids, and balance the look with a pink brown or berry blush and a MLBB matte shade. or a very muted pink

    for the red coloured suit, wear a pink lippie and gold lip gloss, keep eyes either matte in a contrast colour such as olive green or keep them nearly bare, with neutral shadow and tonnes of mascara. largely wear makeup to balance out your outfit, so that the makeup doesnt clash or look too matchy matchy..

  11. hey i think with the white red lipstick would go really well because white one is sophisticated and simple so red lips would look nice i have to go for enagement too on sunday and i have a white and gold anarkali which im going to wear so i was thinking that i will also wear red lipstick xxx
